Anything as too much water flow ? What do you consider as enough

[Velocity]

Am still brain storming why both my anemones like the same spot -

light, water flow or what - I have to some how get them away from each other and hopefully viewable as the BTA is large and beautiful where the LTA is barely viewable

It is my experience and opinion that any time spent trying to understand and control anemones is time you'll never get back and have wasted because they often don't make sense.

So many theories out there but I see so many of them completely conflict despite being mutually exclusive.

My aquascapes have a "bundle" of rocks on each side and one in the middle. They're only connected by a small thin rock at the top for aesthetics. I place an anemone in one of these formations and generally they stay somewhere there without moving to another. However they still find a way sometimes and I just let them do what they want.

I buy more anemones before trying to train or place them where I want. Literally. Lol

For example - sorry about cloudiness I cleaned the glass for your photo lol

Tank looks so awful in photos because of blue washing and my camera phone lol

Only 4 of my 6 RBTA are even out for the photo. There's another in the middle column and another on the right that are hiding.

You can get too much, or at least too much in spots. My Lps don't like too much, guys like bubble coral physically can rip. That being said I keep my mixed reef at over 100x flow with a gyre 150 at 100% constant, 2 mp40 QD 100% reef crest plus my return all in a 4 foot 120.

I pulled one of mine - I watched him twirling like crazy and just went pump by pump to see which one it was and pulled that one - he still has flow and is moving but not nearly as much. Hopefully he doesn't meet the Mag Pump tonight
